The bonespawn follows its orders without imagination or deviation. When ordered to fight, it moves towards the closest enemy by the shortest available route, making no effort to avoid hazards.
While most skeletons are the undead remains of a single corpse, mismatched and jumbled bones can be raised as bonespawn. Bonespawn lack the half-remembered battle instincts and the durability of true skeletons, but they are deadly in large numbers.
Burning skeletons are formed from the charred remains of those burned alive on funeral pyres. Wreathed in magical flames, burning skeletons set their enemies ablaze with their flaming weapons and with fiery blasts from their eye sockets.
Skeletons guard tombs and temples.
